2015 Lincoln Navigator Is Here

2015 Lincoln Navigator has just been officially introduced by the luxury brand, which aims to offer with it a modern interpretation of the classic vehicle. Refinement have been applied to both exterior and interior with one of the main highlights - Lincoln's iconic split-wing grille that has been reintroduced.

The SUV features a sleeker front that sports new design of the hood, while the rear end now features a power up/down tailgate. On both ends, the Navigator boasts jewel-like LED lights, as well as high-intensity discharge (HID) adaptive headlamps with LED accents.

The new Lincoln runs on standard 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, while as an option customers can chose the Reserve Package that comes with 22-inch polished aluminum wheels and chrome-accented running boards.

A highlight here is the new steering wheel which is Wollsdorf leather-wrapped and wood-trimmed and that offers a thicker grip and softer touch. Navigator has been designed to accommodate up to eight persons via the second-row option.

More importantly, this SUV is powered by the fuel-efficient 3.5-liter EcoBoost twin turbocharged, direct injection unit that is expected to produce 370 horsepower (272 kW) and 583 Nm (430 lb.-ft.) of torque. The powertrain has been mated to the special six-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift that allows the person behind the wheel to manually control gears if desired.

The vehicle is offered in standard-length (207.4 inches) and extended-length (222.3 inches) version, as well as four-wheel-drive and rear-wheel-drive configurations. There is available Control Trac Four-Wheel-Drive system, electric power-assisted steering, and Lincoln Drive Control with Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD).
